To date have resisted changing from Pradaxa, but wonder if anyone has found less bruising with Edoxaban

My legs look like they belong to a Dalmatian.

Then take more water with it and stop walking into things 😳

To be more serious, are you saying your legs bruise for no obvious reason. Does it affect your arms as well…….

No, mainly my legs. Odd fingerprint bruise on arms but legs look dreadful

Strange, apart from Warfarin for the first year or so I have only taken Apixaban. I’m not aware of having any unaccountable bruises anywhere and when they do occur, they tend to disappear fairly quickly. Apart from seeing your Doc, not sure what else to suggest. Having to take two tablets a day has its disadvantages but if you miss one, at least you are less vulnerable than if you are on a one pill a day medication…..

I have a 6-7 week wait for a telephone call from my Dr about another matter. 😢

I'm on Edoxaban and don't get any bruises at all.
